Almost every major manufacturer has entered Indian market as there are still many unexplored segments which need to be looked upon. Just like all other segments, Indian masses are slowly turning their head towards off-roading also. Hero Motocorp. launched Impulse few years back but as it lacked power, Hero has to replace its engine with the Karizma’s one. And we might get to witness the launch of a more powerful Impulse by the middle of next year.
